I will show and tell how to setup, build, test, manage, monitor, and rollback your Drupal application on Kubernetes. Those close to the operations end of development have known for many years that there are numerous performance, security, deployment, and management benefits achieved from isolating the web server, the database, and the php runtime. With a full container orchestration system, I will show you how to take advantage of benefits of:

Using ‘namespaces’ to easily create new development environments

Using ‘deployments’ to deploy and rollback changes

Using ‘autoscaling’ to dynamically scale your apps based on traffic

Using resource limits to isolate run-away processes

Debugging dynamic applications

Pantheon has shifted our platform to leverage the power of Kubernetes to power 200,000 PHP web applications and we would like to share our lessons-learned and the benefits we gained. Come with an interest in the next-generation cloud-native environments and leave with some guidance on how to begin working in one.
